To All,

Thanks for the kind comments. It's much appreciated.

@Comrando, I had originally thought of blacking them out, but my first practice cutout was made of black construction paper (good visual rep) and it wasnt my taste.

@Darkness, The cutout itself is really not something you cant develop to your own dimensions, but if you need the dimensions for the ones I came up with I'll be glad to work them up for you.

Take care everyone and goodnight.

Nice work man, and pretty simple. Just as long as that silicon holds out, seems like a great way to go...

My Caroline · 07-08-2012, 09:52 PM

Nice! That actually looks really good!

KnightRiderSS · 07-08-2012, 09:53 PM

Good job on your project

But they did make those taillights you can buy them at

http://www.automotivelightstore.com/afterburner.aspx

There's two versions SMD is the one with the line across and the semi circle and are a lot brighter

The CCFL are just the semi circle and are more soft

Holy crap. Need dimensions.

SabotAndHeat · 07-09-2012, 07:09 AM

@ Revo1, Yeah I agree, Those LED Afterburners are not the same at all.

@ S3XPanther, I will whip up the dimensions for you after work tonight and post them.
